Mini Book Review | The Keeper of Lost Things

Book 6: The Keeper of Lost Things by Ruth Hogan

#abookfromacelebritybookclub

I found this book a little hard to get into – but I know that it is only because I didn’t choose this book myself; it is our book club read for Jan/Feb. However, when I got into the swing of things, I couldn’t put this down.

This book follows two separate set of characters, one to do with writing, one to do with publishing. It follows two different series of events that eventually intertwine. The story has some really loveable characters, and a plot that will literally give you goosebumps – I can’t count the amount of times that I got the shivers! More than that though, is the character Sunshine who has Downs Syndrome – or “dancing drome” as she calls it. Sunshine is the most intuitive character with a very special set of skills. Although she plays a small part in the story, it really made me think about how we can be very quick to dismiss the opinions or voices of others and not take them seriously. This book made me reconsider that.

I want to give this book to everyone I know! I really loved it!
